Although I am a beginner when it comes to knitting, I do so enjoy a beautiful skein of handspun, hand-dyed yarn. I chose purple with both of my girls in mind, and when Ana discovered that I had decided to make leg warmers, she claimed them. This has been my favorite project so far, and somewhere near the end of the first legwarmer, I finally got the hand of my knit and purl stictches. I love those "A-ha moments," and these legwarmers were mine for knitting. I'm just glad that my girl likes them just as much as I do!
If you would like to make your own adorable set, the pattern is here.
